Gregory Potter '17 Recruiting Profile

I began pole vaulting during my freshman year of high school (15 years old). I jumped 9'6" that year and during my sophomore year of high school I jumped 11'0".  After the season I began working on my vaults at a club by the name of Vaultworx located in Camp Hill, PA. During the indoor season of my junior year I jumped 14'10" and 15'0" for outdoor.

I am a former gymnast of 13 years. I've also competed many other sports such as baseball, soccer, and football. However I've always excelled in gymnastics and just recently pole vault.  Some of my achievements include 1st place at 2015 Millrose Games, 2nd place at Emerging Elite New Balance Nationals, 2nd place at Penn Relays, 1st place at YAIAA Track and Field Championships, 1st place at PIAA District 3 Championships, and 6th place at PIAA State Meet.

I am looking at attending a college that will provide me with the best academics and athletics that suit me. I'm interested in Kinesiology and furthering the path to physical therapy.
